|
When it all comes true |
|
Just the way you'd planned |
|
It's funny but the bells don't ring |
|
It's a quiet thing |
|
When you hold the world |
|
In your trembling hand |
|
You'd think you'd hear a choir sing |
|
It's a quiet thing |
|
There are no exploding fireworks |
|
Where's the roaring of the crowds |
|
Maybe it's the strange new atmosphere |
|
Way up here among the clouds |
|
But I don't hear the drums |
|
And I don't hear the band |
|
The sounds I'm told |
|
Such moments bring |
|
Happiness comes in on tip-toe |
|
Well what'd'ya know |
|
It's a quiet thing |
|
A very - quiet - thing |
